To be honest, I don't think anyone can give you an answer until you apply and see. I would have tried to seal the record if you could and still may be able to. You are required to submit FBI background check when you apply.

It鈥檚 two years to seal the record. I am not even sure if the seal will be strong enough and not show for emigration matters.

This is correct--an FBI background check only covers federal crimes. It does not cover state or local crimes. You may want to order a copy of your FBI background check to confirm that the offense is not listed on there. If you went to a State Court (and not a Federal Court) to deal with the prosecutor and enter your plea, it will likely not be listed on the FBI background check. Therefore, it should not impact your emigration plans from the US.

With regards to the suggestion about having it dismissed--I doubt this is possible since you took a plea deal.

I can't remember if it's a question or just you include the report.聽 That is definately a lawyer question.聽 And Lishali will answer things like this without charging you.聽 She won't lead you down a path knowing you won't qualify!聽 聽She is very unusual by Dominican lawyer standards!聽 There are others too like her.聽 聽And there are many more who will say anything just to get your money.聽

I suggest you message her on whatsapp, explain and ask your questions honey.聽 And please let us know.聽 We are all curious now.

Thank you planner. The reason I am not talking with a lawyer yet is because I am not completely sure about the country I will choose and don鈥檛 want to waste anyone鈥檚 time.聽 DR is very special to me because it鈥檚 a lot alike to my beautiful island (cuba) they are a few countries in South America that are very appealing but the ocean is not the same on that part of the world. The armed crime is the only thing I am concerned in DR. I can live with mosquitoes, bad water, power interruptions but I need to make sure my family will be safe.
I am planning to spend a couples of months in the cabrera area to see how secure I feel.

From reading online looks like you guys are right on the misdemeanor not showing on FBI聽 especially because I was never arrested and fingerprints were not necessary. This lead me to another question and I know I should ask to a lawyer but here is free so for now I will keep picking brains.
I am guessing I will have to answer questions about criminal records I will have to say聽 I am clean . But I am going to invest $200k what happens if something shows later?聽 I am aware of how easy is to buy and how difficult is to sell in DR.

It is my understanding that you include a copy of the FBI background check apostillized by the US State Department (and subsequently translated into Spanish) without ever answering additional questions on it. Unless you later commit a federal offense, I don't see why it would later show up on any FBI background check.

Not true, I have a misdemeanor and few violations which showed on mine from local level.

Hi. Do you remember if fingerprints were taking during your misdemeanor? Were you arrested?
Thank you.

Was it an FBI background check or an RCMP background check?

FBI

Ultimately it comes down to the reporting mechanisms of each state. There is no uniform reporting requirement, so each state has control about what offenses get reported by each county. Furthermore, the FBI used to exclude certain offenses that were reported to it (since the federal regulations required them to be excluded). But they stopped screening the offenses reported years ago due to the sheer volume of offenses.

The original poster said he was never arrested and fingerprinted, so without fingerprints , I would expect a 1-2% chance of his misdemeanor being reported on the FBI background check.
